A wide range of product from furniture to finishes to meet the desire of all designers.
UOVO LARGE
fontanaarte > Table lamp
A natural form and timeless symbol of perfection, in which symmetry and asymmetry harmoniously coexist. Designed in 1972, the ‘shell’ of the egg contained a light source: an ironic idea that still works today. As in nature, the shell of the Uovo lamp is the embodiment of absolute lightness, an elegant form in white satin blown glass that gives off a warm, uniform light. Available in three sizes, it has all the versatility of a collection designed for multiple uses: from the small version which serves as a tiny utility lamp to the large version, a veritable light sculpture, protagonist of any space.

PAROLA
fontanaarte > Table lamp
Designed by Gae Aulenti and Piero Castiglioni in 1980, the Parola lamp features three different kinds of glass working processes: blown glass, natural glass and natural crystal. It is an exemplary model of technical integration between artisan and industrial skills.

REGINA
fontanaarte > Table lamp
Inspired by the game of chess with their sinuous shapes, Re and Regina are the key characters of the chessboard. Their profiles stand out clearly in the white light diffused by opalescent glass. Real individuals, they play in pairs alternating spheres, cylinders and rings of light. Vertical the King (Re), horizontal the Queen (Regina). They can be placed next to each other or in different spots in the same room, be used as floor or table lamps, on a coffee table or a desk, both Re and Regina have the presence to create a context. The dimmer allows to modulate the light making it a surreal element with different degrees of intensity: an element of representation that releases energy in space when the light is bright, abstract and restful when the light is soft and low. Glass sculptures during the day in environments illuminated by natural light. Re and Regina are inspired by the history of art, from Cosmè Tura to the Flemish interiors of Jan Van Eych to the conceptual imagery of Marcel Duchamp who plays chess as a lifestyle. Re and Regina are Cartesian axes of a universe that crosses ages and cultures. In 2020 FontanaArte reintroduces these glass lamps as a sign of the expressive wealth contained in the great repertory of ideas that is the FontanaArte catalogue and, most importantly an homage to the talent of an artist who had a gift for calibrating the formal tension of a utilitarian object on a quest for unity among the arts.
ASHANGHAI
fontanaarte > Table lamp
This extremely elegant table lamp was designed by Max Ingrand in 1955, during the period when this French maestro was artistic director at FontanaArte. Chromed brass joints hold together five tubes made of transparent borosilicate glass that form a series of intersections supporting the lamp.
METAFORA
fontanaarte > Table lamp
Metafora was born in the flourishing creative climate of the early ‘80s, when Gae Aulenti took on the role of artistic director for FontanaArte and decided to bring glass back to the forefront of the company’s production. On Aulenti’s invitation, Umberto Riva designed a precious table lamp consisting of a conical shade in layered opal glass supported by a transparent glass base that hides the metal frame, all interlocking. A highly decorative object, produced with traditional techniques like glass blowing and other examples of artisanal know-how, reproposed today to a clientele ever more attentive to originality of design and its timeless expressions.
LASOSPESA
fontanaarte > Table lamp
FontanaArte calls Stefano Boeri Architetti and launches "lasospesa", the new table lamp. For one of the most important Milanese architects in the world, whose Bosco Verticale is one of the most representative and iconic projects of our time, trying a lamp was an interesting change of scale. Like FontanaArte: historic and contemporary Milan, elegant entrances and new buildings, fashion and major art exhibitions. Like FontanaArte's art: it finds form in an object that does not preclude function and from which a light comes to life. lasospesa is in fact a symmetrical table lamp, born from the elementary principle of the incorporation of two cylinders: a cylinder of primary light suspended in a cylinder of diffused light. "A non-lamp with numerous uses and iridescent luminosity, very simple and classic, lasospesa seems to have always been there, where you placed it" says Stefano Boeri.
BILIA
fontanaarte > Table lamp
Nothing more than a sphere, set in an apparently impossible feat of balance, upon a cone that serves as the base. One of Gio Ponti’s many compositional magic tricks, designed in 1932. The counterbalancing of two elementary geometric forms results in an original, perfectly proportioned object. An unpretentious composition, enriched by the extraordinary balance of its proportions and the stylish discretion of non-reflective materials.The light is diffused and valorized by the geometrical simplicity of the design. In designing Bilia, Gio Ponti imagined a smaller version in a range of “spray colours”. From those handwritten notes of the original project, FontanaArte presents Bilia Mini in new breathtaking chromatic variations.

OORT
fontanaarte > Table lamp
The OORT system is composed of tubular elements made of borosilicate glass. Inside them are flexible LED light tubes of the latest generation, easily replaceable, with perfectly uniform 360° light emission and certified also for outdoor use. The borosilicate glass is ribbed on the inside, a feature that enhances the light by making it warm and welcoming, brings out the effect of light and shadow, and allows easy cleaning of the smooth outer surface. The light is diffuse, dimmable and available at 3000K (1900Lm/m) or Dim To Warm which allows to change the colour temperature, by dimming, from minumum 1800K to 4000K at maximum intensity. The flux is dimmer-dependent to a maximum of approx 1000Lm/m. The product can be supplied at 2700K on request.

BLOM
fontanaarte > Table lamp
Blom is a small table lamp by Andreas Engesvik, a Norwegian designer who has made a name for himself on the international scene thanks to his ability to instil emotions, appeal and ideas into everyday objects. Taking up very little space, just 24 cm tall with a diameter of 15 cm, Blom is a light, fun lamp that is easy to pick up and move and suitable for any purpose. Its name, a contraction of the word blomst, which in Norwegian means flower, is inspired by its petal shaped blades. Intensity can be adjusted thanks to the two petals that gently embrace the diffuser, rotating on the base to shield the glare depending on personal requirements: with the petals aligned the lamp emits maximum light. The compact fluorescent bulb guarantees good effective lighting with low energy consumption. The metal base ensures stability for the lamp and when lit, the polycarbonate petals maintain a temperature that permits touching without the risk of burns. Blom is an article that adapts perfectly to contemporary living trends, at home on a table in the lounge or even by a bedside.

MATRIX LARGE
fontanaarte > Table lamp
Both table lamp and art object, MATRIX is the result of the essential design of the duo Oskar Peet and Sophie Mensen, established designers of the latest generation and founders of the Eindhoven-based Studio OS Δ OOS. When referring to the term matrix, we generally think of a square matrix commonly used in mathematics, i.e. a combination of rows and columns. A third dimension is added by introducing a circle that surrounds the matrix like a ring. The design object becomes a lamp thanks to a light globe, positioned internally and centrally to the matrix, which emits a soft and diffused light in all directions. The grid structure plays with the simple and pure shape of the illuminated sphere. The components of Matrix create transparencies and cast unusual geometric shadows on the surrounding surfaces when viewed from different perspectives. The Matrix project began as a system to allow for endless configurations. The base concept is derived from architectural constructions and solutions for multi-purpose situations, i.e. from the concept of form meeting function.
